Moscow Circus coming Nov. 10

Circus performers will enact a centuries old folktale showcasing their talents as aerialists, jugglers, gymnasts and clowns. The tale focuses on the Snow Queen, who discovers a tropical Russia and, through her magic, transforms it into a winter wonderland.

The North American tour by the Moscow Circus is made possible by a special arrangement with the Russian Ministry of Culture and the Mayor’s Office of Moscow. "A Russian Winter’s Tale" is a new production specifically designed for the stage.

With a rich tradition and enviable reputation, the Moscow Circus is a standard by which other circuses are judged. The Oxford performance is a family event for children and adults.
